Introduction to Quickenberry
Quickenberry Lodge and Guesthouse is located on Terrace Downs Golf Resort in the High Country of Canterbury in the South Island of New Zealand. It provides accommodation for travellers who appreciate and desire old fashioned hospitality, friendly service and fine cuisine. It is personal, peaceful and private. We offer an experience rather than just accommodation.
Quickenberry is a delightful small lodge in a beautiful setting only one hour's drive from Christchurch right on Terrace Downs Golf Resort. It is on the doorstep of an exciting and largely unspoilt und undiscovered adventure playground high above the Rakaia river extending in one big sweep right up to the snowcapped Southern Alps of New Zealand.

Winter
Days
Quickenberry Guesthouse is an ideal
base from which to ski Mt. Hutt. The top of the ski
field is only 40 min from here which is the same as from
Methven. But staying at Quickenberry is different. It is
an experience of tranquility, romance, starlit skies,
fresh air, winter storms and a roaring fire and good
food and wine.
The views from all rooms and the lodge
are outstanding with snow clad Mt. Hutt towering high
above and rolling sugar coated hills reaching dreamily
into the distance. Sheep often graze right in front of
the windows with lambs frolicking in spring. Scenes of
pastoral bliss rejuvenate your soul and put smiles into
your heart.
Stay 3 nights for $600.00 double
occupancy including continental breakfast and a four course dinner of delicious European food prepared
by Swiss owner chef Robert and presented by Christine,
recipients of many prizes and awards for their food and
hospitality the most recent one being Best Hosted
Accommodation within the region for 2009/2010.
Buy the package as a lovely gift
voucher for a birthday
present.

tradition of a European chalet with in-house chef and
host to look after you. Please inquire at quickenberry@xtra.co.nz
